The present subject matter relates to generating a score for a runbook or a script. In one embodiment, ticket data may be received. The ticket data may comprise a ticket and a ticket description. Once the ticket data is received, a set of policies associated with a platform may be identified. The set of policies may be identified based on an analysis of historical data, the ticket and the ticket description. Upon identification of the set of policies, a set of functions may be determined. The set of functions may be determined based on an analysis of the set of policies using a neural network technique and an Inverse Reinforcement Learning technique. The set of functions may be further used to analyse the ticket and the ticket description. Based on the analysis of the ticket and the ticket description, a runbook or a script may be recommended from a runbook repository. The runbook or the script may be executed to resolve the ticket. Upon execution of the runbook or the script, one of a script success or a script failure may be recorded. Further, a score for the runbook or the script may be generated based on one of the script success or the script failure.

Referring now to FIG. 1, a network implementation 100 of a system 102 for generating a score for a runbook or a script is disclosed. Although the present subject matter is explained considering that the system 102 is implemented on a server, it may be understood that the system 102 may also be implemented in a variety of computing systems, such as a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a notebook, a workstation, a mainframe computer, a server, a network server, and the like. In one implementation, the system 102 may be implemented over a cloud network. Further, it will be understood that the system 102 may be accessed by multiple users through one or more user devices 104-1, 104-2 . . . 104-N, collectively referred to as user device 104 hereinafter, or applications residing on the user device 104. Examples of the user device 104 may include, but are not limited to, a portable computer, a personal digital assistant, a handheld device, and a workstation. The user device 104 may be communicatively coupled to the system 102 through a network 106.

In one implementation, the network 106 may be a wireless network, a wired network or a combination thereof. The network 106 may be implemented as one of the different types of networks, such as intranet, local area network (LAN), wide area network (WAN), the internet, and the like. The network 106 may either be a dedicated network or a shared network. The shared network represents an association of the different types of networks that use a variety of protocols, for example, Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), Wireless Application Protocol (WAP), and the like, to communicate with one another. Further, the network 106 may include a variety of network devices, including routers, bridges, servers, computing devices, storage devices, and the like.

In one embodiment, the system 102 may be configured to receive ticket data. The ticket data may be received based on user inputs. The ticket data may comprise a ticket, a ticket description, a ticket cluster, a ticket category, a ticket subcategory, and the like. In one aspect, the ticket may be associated with a hardware issue or a software issue in a platform. The ticket description may correspond to a description of issue. The ticket cluster may correspond to a type of issue.

Further, the system 102 may identify a set of policies associated with the platform. In one aspect, the platform may be referred as an environment. The set of policies may be identified based on an analysis of historical data, the ticket and the ticket description. The historical data, the ticket and the ticket description may be analysed using a neural network technique and an Inverse Reinforcement Learning technique. The neural network technique may be one of a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) technique, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) technique, and a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) technique.

In one embodiment, the historical data may be stored in a historical repository. The historical data may comprise a historic issue, a historic ticket, a historic ticket description, a historic ticket category, a historic ticket subcategory, platform data, and the like.

Once the set of policies is identified, the system 102 may determine a set of functions based on an analysis of the set of policies. The set of policies may be analysed using a neural network technique and an Inverse Reinforcement Learning technique. The neural network technique may be one of a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) technique, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) technique, and a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) technique. The set of functions may be further analysed to identify a set of algorithms. The set of functions may be analysed using an Inverse Reinforcement Learning.

Upon determining the set of functions, the system 102 may recommend one of a runbook or a script from a runbook repository. The runbook repository may correspond to a runbook recommendation engine. The runbook or the script may be recommended based on an analysis of the ticket and the ticket description using the set of functions. In one aspect, the set of algorithms may be used to recommend the runbook or the script. The runbook may comprise a runbook name, a runbook tag, category and the like. The script may comprise a script name, a script tag, a script category and the like.

Further, the system 102 may execute the runbook or the script. The runbook or the script may be executed to resolve the ticket. Based on the execution, the system 102 may record one of a script success or a script failure. The script success may be recorded when the runbook or the script resolves the ticket. The script failure may be recorded when the runbook or the script fails to resolve the ticket.

Based on the script success and the script failure, the system 102 may generate a score for one of the runbook or the script. The score associated with the runbook or the script may be stored in the runbook repository. The score may be changed based on the script success and the script failure. In one aspect, the score may be boosted based on the script success. The score may be penalized based on the script failure. In other words, the score of the runbook or the script may be increased or decreased based on the script success and the script failure.

In one embodiment, the system 102 may implement an entity model. The entity model may be implemented based on an ontology of a domain. In one aspect, the ontology based entity model may penalize the score of the runbook or the script. The score may be penalized or boosted based on a number of key parameters matched between the issue and the runbook or the script.

In one embodiment, the system 102 may use a transfer learning technique to use a knowledge from the platform that is built upon over period of time. The knowledge may correspond to a parameter value or a hyperparameter value associated with the platform. The parameter value or the hyperparameter value may be an initial value for building new runbook recommendation engine in any other platform. This may avoid building the runbook recommendation engine from scratch in a new platform. In other words, the system 102 may use existing runbook recommendation engine from a previous platform to the new environment with modification associated with the new environment to avoid building model from scratch.

Further, construe the runbook recommendation engine exposed to the new platform. In this case, the system 102 may use a Reinforcement Learning technique to penalize by deduction of the score. The score referred to as reward points, hereinafter, may be deducted for each incorrect resolution step of the runbook or the script, or if the runbook or the script corresponding to the issue failed to run. The system 102 may learn itself based on its experience without involvement of human experts. In other words, the system 102 may be smart enough to find, create, or update the runbook or the script based on knowledge extracted from multiple sources and based on the experience in the platform environment. In one example, construe an issue “High CPU Load”. In this case, the system 102 may find, create, or update the runbook or the script using a repetitive process of penalty and the reward points.

In another embodiment, the system 102 may utilize historical data comprising detailed description of issues, events and actions taken by a support person. In this case, the action comprises execution of the runbook or the script from the runbook recommendation engine. The system 102 may use the historical data to penalize or boost the score of the runbook or the script. The system 102 may use an Inverse Reinforcement Learning (IRL) technique to find a combination of algorithms that can be used as core algorithm in the runbook recommendation engine to recommend the runbook or the script. Further, the system 102 may recommend one or more algorithms. The system 102 may determine one or more hyperparameter values associated with the one or more algorithms using the Reinforcement Learning technique. The one or more hyperparameter values may be used to validate the historical data from existing environment. It is to be noted that, the process may be known as hyperparameter tuning. In other words, the system 102 may select the one or more algorithms that may recommend best runbook recommendation engine as per the historical data.

Referring now to FIG. 2, the system 102 for generating a score for a runbook or a script is illustrated in accordance with an embodiment of the present subject matter.

The data 210, amongst other things, serve as a repository for storing data processed, received, and generated by one or more of the modules 208. The data 210 may also include a repository 226, and other data 228. In one embodiment, the other data 228 may include data generated as a result of the execution of one or more modules in the other modules 224.

In one implementation, a user may access the system 102 via the I/O interface 204. The user may be registered using the I/O interface 204 in order to use the system 102. In one aspect, the user may access the I/O interface 204 of the system 102 for obtaining information, providing input information or configuring the system 102.

In one embodiment, the data receiving module 212 may receive ticket data. The ticket data may be received based on user inputs. The ticket data may comprise a ticket, a ticket description, a ticket cluster, a ticket category, a ticket subcategory and the like. The ticket may be associated with one of a hardware issue or a software issue. The hardware issue or the software issue may be associated with a platform. The ticket description may be a description of the issue. The ticket cluster may be an issue type. Once the ticket data is received, the ticket data may be stored in the repository 226.

In one exemplary embodiment, construes ticket descriptions “High CPU utilization server A with threshold value 80%” and “High load on server B have threshold value 90%”. In this case, the ticket cluster may correspond to “High CPU utilization”.

Once the ticket data is received, the policy identification module 214 may identify a set of policies. The set of policies may be associated with the platform. The set of policies may be identified based on an analysis of the ticket, the ticket description and historical data. The historical data, the ticket and the ticket description may be analysed using a neural network technique and an Inverse Reinforcement Learning technique. The neural network technique may be one of a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) technique, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) technique, and a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) technique.

In one embodiment, the historical data may comprise a historic ticket, a historic ticket description, historic ticket category, platform data, an action taken to resolve the historic ticket, and the like. The set of policies may be identified based on an analysis of the action taken to resolve the issue associated with the ticket.

Upon identifying the set of policies, the function determination module 216 may determine a set of functions. The set of functions may be determined based on an analysis of the set of policies. The set of policies may be analysed using a neural network technique and the Inverse Reinforcement Learning technique. The neural network technique may be one of a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) technique, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) technique, and a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) technique.

In one aspect, each function from the set of functions may correspond to a reward function. The function determination module 216 may further identify a set of algorithms. The set of algorithms may be identified based on an analysis of the set of functions using the Inverse Reinforcement Learning technique.

Once the set of algorithms is identified, a hyperparameter value for one or more algorithms from the set of algorithms may be determined. In one aspect, the hyperparameter value may be determined based on a Reinforcement Learning technique. The hyperparameter value may be validated based on an analysis of the historical data. In one aspect, the hyperparameter value may be tuned based on the historical data. Based on the hyperparameter value, a subset of algorithms from the set of algorithms may be identified.

Further, the script recommendation module 218 may recommend one of a runbook or a script from a runbook repository. The runbook repository may be referred as a runbook recommendation engine. The runbook or the script may be recommended based on an analysis of the ticket and the ticket description. The ticket and the ticket description may be analysed using the set of functions. In one aspect, the script recommendation module 218 may use the subset of algorithms to recommend the runbook or the script. The runbook may comprise a runbook name, a runbook tag, a runbook description, category and the like. The script may comprise a script name, a script tag, a script description, a script category and the like. The runbook or the script may correspond to a solution used to resolve the issue associated with ticket. The runbook or the script may be in one of a programming language from C language, C++ language, Java and the like. In one embodiment, the runbook recommendation engine may use an artificial intelligence or a natural language processing to recommend the runbook or the script.

Upon recommendation of the runbook or the script, the script execution module 218 may execute the runbook or the script. The runbook or the script may be executed to resolve the issue associated with the ticket. Based on the execution of the runbook or the script, the script execution module 218 may record a script success and a scripts failure. In one embodiment, if the runbook or the script resolves the issue, then the script success may be recorded. If the runbook or the script fails to resolve the issue, then the script failure may be recorded.

Once the script success and the script failure is recorded, the score generation module 220 may generate a score for one of the runbook or the script. The score may correspond to a recommendation score of the runbook or the script. The score for the runbook or the script may be changed based on the script success and the script failure. In one embodiment, the score generation module 220 may boost the score of the runbook or the script based on the script success. In another embodiment, the score generation module 220 may penalise the score of the runbook or the script based on the script failure. In other words, the score of the runbook or the script may be increased or decreased based on the script success and the script failure.

In one embodiment, the score may be penalized or boosted based on a number of key parameters matched between the issue and the runbook or the script. In one exemplary embodiment, construe an alert as “CPU utilization is very high”. The runbook and the score of the runbook may be “Memory Utilization”, 0.87 and “CPU Utilization”, 0.80. It is to be noted that the issue is related to CPU and not to memory. Henceforth, the system 102 should recommend “CPU Utilization” runbook instead of “Memory Utilization” on top. Here, the recommendation engine may penalize the score for “Memory Utilization” and boost the score for “CPU Utilization”. This is because, the “CPU” is key parameter which is present in “CPU Utilization” runbook meta-data instead of “Memory Utilization”.

In one embodiment, the score generation module 220 may update the score of the runbook or the script based on a feedback. The updating of the score may correspond to penalize or boost the score. The feedback may be received from the user. The user may provide the feedback based on the execution of the runbook or the script. The feedback may be used to improve performance of the runbook recommendation engine.

In one embodiment, the system 102 may generate a directed graph associated with a set of runbooks or a set of scripts. The directed graph may comprise a set of nodes and a set of edges. In one aspect, a relationship between the set of nodes may be created based on successful execution of each step of the runbook or the script. In the directed graph, each node may represent an operation to be performed and each edge may represent relationship between the nodes. The nodes may be spawned if an output from a previous operation satisfies condition to reach to other node.

The directed graphs may be generated dynamically using a Reinforcement Learning technique. In one aspect, during training, the system 102 may receive a reward or a penalty for each steps. The system 102 may learn optimal steps which needs to be followed for successful resolution of an issue or alert. The system 102 may execute runbooks or scripts for resolution using the directed graph based approach. During training, the directed graph may be generated based on the historical data. The historical data may comprise runbooks or scripts executed by a support person to resolve the issue associated with the ticket.

The historical data may comprise a historic issue, a historic ticket, a historic ticket description, a historic ticket category, a historic ticket subcategory, platform data, and the like.

At block 512, a set of functions may be determined based on an analysis of the set of policies. In one implementation, the system 102 may determine the set of functions. The set of policies may be analysed using a neural network technique and an Inverse Reinforcement Learning technique 508. The set of functions may be further analysed to identify a set of algorithms. The set of functions may be analysed using an Inverse Reinforcement Learning 508. The system 102 may analyse data associated with an environment model 510 using the Inverse Reinforcement Leaning 508 to identify the set of algorithms.

At block 514, a runbook recommendation engine may analyse the ticket data 502-D. Based on the analysis, the runbook recommendation engine may recommend a runbook or a script. The runbook recommendation engine may use the set of algorithms to recommend the runbook or the script. The runbook recommendation engine may be referred as a recommendation system. At block 516, the runbook or the script may be recommended.

At block 522, the runbook or the script may be evaluated. Further, at block 524, the system 102 may check if the runbook or the script is correct or not. The correctness of the runbook or the script may be checked based on an analysis of the runbook or the script.

At block 528, the runbook or the script may be executed. The runbook or the script may be executed to resolve the issue associated with the ticket. Based on the execution, the system 102 may record one of a script success or a script failure.

At block 530, the script success or the script failure may be recorded. be The script success may be recorded when the runbook or the script resolves the issue associated with ticket. The script failure may be recorded when the runbook or the script fails to resolve the issue associate with the ticket. Based on the script success and the script failure, the system 102 may generate a score for one of the runbook or the script. The score may be changed based on the script success and the script failure. In one aspect, the score may be boosted based on the script success. The score may be penalized based on the script failure.

At block 518, a user feedback may be incorporated in the recommendation system. The user feedback may be associated with the execution of the runbook or the script. Further, the user feedback, the runbook or the script, and the issue may be stored in the recommendation system.

At block 520, a new runbook or a new script may be generated. In one embodiment, if the recommendation system 514 fails to recommend the runbook or the script, then the system 102 may create the new runbook or the new script using a natural language processing.
